Since her breakout role in 2016's American Honey , Sasha Lane has been a beauty standout—but it’s her look on tonight’s Met Gala red carpet that has already become an ultra-memorable moment. Wearing a gauzy white Tory Burch gown with lace ruffle detail, the Texas native served up pure decadence above the neck, her dreads worn sky-high and decorated with diamanté-encrusted strands, which were layered from top to bottom by hairstylist Nai'vasha Johnson to twinkling effect.
Paired with gold-flecked smoky eyes, groomed brows, a slick of lip gloss, and silver chrome talons, her elaborate, light-catching coif caused heads to turn. And while it's not the first time Lane has embellished her locs—she's adorned them with everything from seashell beads to copper wire— the towering statement is surely her most striking to date. And there's no question, she's a boundary-pushing beauty star to watch.
